I’m changing the coolant along with radiator hoses, thermostat, and heater tees. Just preventative maintenance as I’m replacing the alternator and all the pulleys, I drain the coolant but I haven’t purchase the coolant yet. Is this red or pink ? Looks pink at first then red ? I was going to replace with red coolant but if this is pink I don’t want to mix it, then I’ll put in pink as it was last changed by an indy shop so unknown brands or types. Thanks!

That looks red (pre 2004 vehicles) to me. It is said that you can mix pink and red. I've even done it without issues over 300K miles. Previous owner used red, I drained and filled with pink. If you don't want to mix, just flush it out and start over with pink.
